About the Item

A beautiful pair of 1950s modernist armchairs crafted in Finnish birch with their original green velvet upholstery. The design plays with elegant, curving lines along the arms and backrest, paired with a light, airy frame that makes the chairs easy to place and move within an interior. The original greenish velvet carries the unmistakable charm of the mid-century era—bold yet timeless in its tone, and wonderfully atmospheric. The chairs remain in fully original condition, showing the authentic character that only decades of careful use can create. We have chosen to keep them exactly as found, but we also offer professional upholstery services at reasonable prices should you wish to have them restored or customized. The birch has gone some light refinishing for a fresh look. A versatile and inviting pair that blends naturally into both modern and eclectic spaces, bringing softness, warmth, and a touch of Finnish mid-century craftsmanship.

By Boman OY
Located in Helsinki, FI
A pair of elegant armchairs designed by Carin Bryggman for Boman Oy in Finland in the 1950s-1960s. The chair bodies are in original and very good condition. The upholstery has been changed at some point. The chairs are compact in size compared to other sizable Finnish armchairs, and are extremely comfortable to sit in.
